detect google bot

I need an experienced PHP-coder/Server admin who can tell me how to detect webcrawlers/-spiders like for example Google (googlebot).

Is there a sure way to detect these bots? Or do they mask itself sometimes? I need a reliable way for detecting and if necessary redirecting to another page.

Let me know what you can do for me.

I think we would also speak about cloaking here... see following links:
